Question
You are given a plane Π in R3 defined by two vectors, p1 and p2, and a subspace W in R3 spanned by two
vectors, w1 and w2. Your task is to project the plane Π onto the subspace W.
First, answer the question of what the projection matrix is that projects onto the subspace W and how to
apply it to find the desired projection. Second, approach the task in a different way by using the Gram-Schmidt
method to find an orthonormal basis for subspace W, before then using the resulting basis vectors for the
projection. Last, compare the results obtained from both methods
